Difference Between Java and CPP (2)

Java is platform-independent and uses automatic garbage collection, while C++ is platform-dependent and requires manual memory management. Java does not support multiple inheritance with classes but uses interfaces, whereas C++ allows multiple inheritance. Additionally, Java enhances safety by not supporting pointers, while C++ allows direct memory access, resulting in faster execution for C++ due to native machine code compilation.

Difference Between Java and C++

1. Platform Dependency

Java: Platform-independent. Java code is compiled into bytecode, which runs on the Java Virtual Machine

(JVM). This means it can run on any OS with a JVM.

C++: Platform-dependent. C++ code is compiled directly into machine code for a specific OS and hardware.

2. Memory Management

Java: Uses automatic garbage collection. The JVM automatically handles memory cleanup.

C++: Requires manual memory management using 'new' and 'delete'.

3. Multiple Inheritance

Java: Does not support multiple inheritance with classes. Uses interfaces to achieve similar behavior.

C++: Supports multiple inheritance, allowing a class to inherit from multiple base classes.

4. Pointers

Java: Does not support direct use of pointers, enhancing safety and security.

C++: Fully supports pointers for direct memory access and manipulation.

5. Compilation and Execution

Java: Code is compiled into bytecode and run by the JVM, making it portable but slightly slower.

C++: Code is compiled directly to native machine code, offering faster execution.
